Overview
“To the Many More Nights I Have to Go Through” is a visual project that explores what insomnia feels like on an emotional and sensory level. Using a mix of typography, animation, and surreal 3D spaces, it captures the strange in-between state of being awake when the world is quiet.
Time stretches, thoughts repeat, and reality starts to blur. Through distorted visuals and symbolic environments, the project reflects the disorientation, isolation, and quiet intensity that come with sleepless nights.
Concept & Direction
This project began as a quiet response to the emotional texture of sleepless nights. It reflects the moments when time feels slow and heavy, when the world outside is still but the mind refuses to rest. Rather than approaching insomnia clinically, the work leans into its strange poetry. It looks at how silence begins to swell, how familiar spaces feel distant, and how thoughts move in endless circles. Through fragmented visuals and symbolic environments, the project captures that in-between space where everything feels both too much and not enough, suspended somewhere between reality and dream.
Medium & Process
The project combines typography, 3D modeling, animation, and sound to build a layered sensory experience. It opens with a series of animated scenes that follow a solitary figure through shifting environments, moving from a dim bedroom into surreal interior spaces filled with uncanny objects. These dreamlike transitions reflect the emotional and spatial disorientation of insomnia. The animations were created in Blender and composited in After Effects. A typographic poster follows, using stretched forms and scattered text to reflect the warped sense of time and mental fatigue. Together, these elements create a layered experience that mirrors the quiet and restless rhythm of being unable to sleep.
